Alas, premature and irrational exuberance. I installed this driver and
now have no 3D at all. And while sysinfo:/ shows this:

Display Info
Vendor:  ATI Technologies Inc
  Model:  ATI RADEON 9600 Series (RV350/RV360 4152)
  Driver:  Unknown

flg_glxgears and glxgears yield this:

% fgl_glxgears
Using GLX_SGIX_pbuffer
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such 
operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  143 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
  Serial number of failed request:  14
  Current serial number in output stream:  14

% glxgears
X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such 
operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  143 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
  Serial number of failed request:  14

Stellarium and Celestia now hang at start-up and have to be killed.
